The AUDI A4 (2005-08) 4DR SALOON 1.8T 163 MTRON AUTO is a mid-sized premium family saloon, with four doors, a separate boot and a more upmarket feel than mainstream family cars. In the UK used-car market it sits alongside the BMW 3 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class, appealing to buyers wanting a smart, comfortable everyday car. Its 1.8-litre turbo petrol engine and automatic transmission make this A4 suited to commuting, longer journeys and family duties. It is less naturally aimed at bargain running costs or first-time drivers than a small hatchback. The cabin, composed road manners and understated styling are key attractions, though condition matters greatly on an older example. mycarcheck.com recorded three look-ups covering one VIN, so its figures are indicative only: average recorded mileage was 208,000, annual mileage 3,000, and previous keepers averaged three. The average private-sale valuation was £300; check each car’s history, condition and asking price carefully before buying.
